Arrogant Worms, The - William Shakespeare`s In My Cat слова песни
I never much believed in reincarnation
Thought it was only people`s imagination
But now I`m forced into some reconsideration
`Cause something`s happened to my cat
That deserves some explanation
William Shakespeare`s in my cat
My kitty is the bard
He used to be a playwright
Now he`s digging up the yard
He`s still a cat in most respects
He likes to meow and purr
But now I introduce him as the cat
That wrote Richard the third
I took him to see Phantom
He said it was quite nice
But he can`t go see Miss Saigon
Until he kills some mice
(Until he kills some mice)
William Shakespeare`s in my cat
It sometimes seems so deep
The guy who wrote Twelfth Night
Chews on my socks while I`m asleep
I`m really quite impressed
I own the cat who wrote MacBeth
But if something`s rotten in this state
It`s just his fishy breath
`Cause he wrote Romeo and Juliet
But his greatest story yet
Is coming back as someone`s pet
And gettin` neutered by the vet
He got his paws caught in a net
Then he said to be or not to meeeow!
William Shakespeare`s in my cat
He rarely ever talks
He makes his loudest statements
Standing in the litter box
He sleeps on all my shelves
And throws my books about the house
It doesn`t sound like prose
When he bats his squeaky mouse
Sam Beckett`s plays are witty,
Same thing for Bernard Shaw,
Oscar Wilde is pretty,
But none of them have paws
(None of them have paws)
William Shakespeare`s in my cat
He chases bits of fluff
John Milton`s in my goldfish
But I never liked his stuff
I`m thinking that Franz Kafka
Really came back as a bug
And I hope Andrew Lloyd Webber
Will stay underneath my rug
`Cause he wrote Romeo and Juliet
But his greatest story yet
Is coming back as someone`s pet
And gettin` neutered by the vet
He got his paws caught in a net
Then he said to be or not to meeeow!
Take it, Trevor!
(Trevor`s solo on what sounds like a Jew`s-Harp-style instrument)
He wrote Romeo and Juliet
But his greatest story yet
Is coming back as someone`s pet
And gettin` neutered by the vet
He got his paws caught in a net
Then he said to be or not to meeeow!
